Design the H-Cord with these cuts. (These cuts were made through TinkerCad)

Ultimaker Cura

Convert the Tinkercad model into an STL file and send it to Ultimaker Cura to 3dPrint.

(LengthxWidthxHeight)mm

Left and Right Rectangle Dimensions:

10x30x28


Top and Bottom Rectangle Dimension:

10x20x28


Middle Rectangles:

Left Middle (11.5x30x11)

Middle Middle (29.5x30x9)

Right Middle (11x30x11)

Convert to STL file and print through Ultimaker Cura. (I recommend printing them seperately.)
